open | come bury your toes in the sand

WHO: Naminé and friends; open to passersby
WHERE: Beach near Heropa
WHEN: October 15th
WHAT: BEACH PARTY! Feel free to create a new prompt if the ones below don't appeal to you.
WARNINGS: None for now!

It'd taken a lot of last minute scrambling, a lot of runs to the grocery store, and a lot of help from her friends. But as Naminé steps back from the set up, she smiles. Allows herself a little bit of pride in what she's accomplished.

The home tent is where all the food is. Fold up tables have been loaded with an array of sandwiches, finger foods, and drinks, and a cooler nearby has fish and other seafood goodies to be grilled at the bonfire once someone gets hungry for it. This is also where she'll direct friends to drop off snacks and homemade goodies. Please do not sneak any of the chocolate and marshmallows meant for s'mores later.

Close by is the rest area, which is really just a big spread of blankets and a couple fold up chairs on the sand. She doesn't expect everyone to want to stay standing up all day, after all. Naminé knows she's going to be there for a bit, chatting with friends who are visiting, and she may have started a tiny sandcastle and collection of sea shells at the edge of the blankets as well.

The volleyball net and accompanying volleyball are borrowed from a co-worker, so it definitely needs to get back to her in one piece. There's plenty of space for other sports and competitions though...perhaps a game of soccer? And how could anyone ignore the ocean? She and a few others will likely be waist deep in it, learning and practicing how to swim.

Not bad for her first party. Now all she has to do is wait for her guests.

[Chubrub takes off with just as much enthusiasm as the first time]

I would say don't do that unless you want him charging into people.

[Kel glances over at the set up and smiles]

I certainly wouldn't mind, if it's alright? I wouldn't be crashing anything?

[Chubrub comes panting up and Kel kneels to take his toy away]

Here lad, let's take a break before you fall over.

[Following Namine, she reaches for one of the water bottles to pour into her hands and let him lap up]

He doesn't; he uses it all up and then I have to carry him home.

[Chubrub at least manages to get most of the water into himself rather than spilling it all over the sand, and Kel uses the last of the bottle to rinse her hand of dog slobber.]

Unfortunately if I try leaving while he's still got the energy to walk on his own, he gets VERY sad.

[Chubrub flops on his side, panting happily at the pets. Considering her pet duty done, Kel grabs for a sandwich and water bottle of her own]

He's welcome to come to the farm, certainly. And you too, if you like, we have plenty of dogs to go around.

Just let me know, and I'll meet you at the Porter. It's quite a walk if you go by yourself.

Have you ever ridden a horse?

[personal profile] protects_the_small 2016-10-30 03:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Not very, with the right horse. I'll teach you.

A mile or so outside De Chima. As I said, it's much easier to meet at the porter.

[Oh right, free time....that's a thing people have....]

Weekends, perhaps. Do you have school?

Oh, that just depends on how good you are at getting up after you fall off.
